Meal plan w/c 30 March 09

Not a great to start to the week really. I came back from my weekend away with a cold which has proceeded to get worse all week. Unfortunately its not a "stay in bed" cold, its just a "struggle through the day feeling off colour" kind of cold followed by doing nothing in the evening to recover. Anyway, so the only exercise I've done so far this week was a 20 minute exercise bike session on Tuesday night which I wish I hadn't bothered with because it made me feel worse. Plus I've eaten too much this week because I've been lying around in the evenings and not been able to distract myself.

Then on Monday evening the dishwasher broke. I wasn't impressed. We have quite a small kitchen so if you don't keep on top of things there is nowhere to do anything. As it happens its quite an old dishwasher and we were planning to get a new one anyway over Easter, but hey that means I'm stuck with washing up for two weeks so meals will now be simple and use as few pots as possible!

Mon 30 - spicy chicken and apricot stew with rice and steamed veg

Tue 31 - chorizo, aduki bean and vegetable stew with a small handful of bulgur wheat chucked in

Wed 1 - fray bentos chicken and mushroom pie with steamed veg

Thu 2 - freezer meal, so either frozen pizza and salad, or frozen chicken thing with oven chips and baked beans

Fri 3 - bolognese, baked potato and steamed veg, if my cold is up to it

Sat 4 - hopefully something in the slow cooker, I have a packet of diced lamb in the freezer so maybe a lamb casserole or hotpot

Sun 5 - homemade pizza
